This is my first time ever to try SCUBA diving and all the staff here are very knowledgeable and friendly! I just got my open water diver certification and the instructors were amazing. Definitely would recommend this place to everyone that is interested in SCUBA diving.

I have recently dived back into SCUBA after an absence of many years. The folks at Bluewater were very helpful in getting my gear back in shape and advising me on the newer equipment available. Jeremy helped me select some new to be gear at their annual Black Friday sale. With their experience and customer oriented attitude I was able to get back into an activity I enjoyed as a young man without breaking my budget. I look forward to doing future business with them as well.

Great friendly staff! Knowledgeable and great instructors. Very helpful and always willing to answer questions. We got hooked after the open water cert and jumped right into their 20/20 program! This is a group of divers passionate about diving and it shows!

These guys are amazing. I earned my open water diver certification through them 7 years ago, when they were a much smaller shop. They are just as friendly, personable, and helpful as they were back then; every time I go its always a great experience. I have never compared there prices to anyone else because frankly the value of their customer service is intangible and I can't put a price on it. Last time I was at the shop I was looking for a mask, the owner spent at least 15 minutes showing me the correct way to "dry" fit a mask and diligently checked the seal around each mask when I held it to

This is the most complete dive shop I have ever been to and I have seen them all here in OKC. Their selection of gear and inventory is by far the best and their staff is the most knowledgeable and helpful. I have received excellent dive training with the best instructors available. They are simply the best. I won't go anywhere else.
